Abstract
An agricultural harvesting machine for harvesting and/or processing crop material has a transfer device for transferring crop material, an intake device that includes a foreign-object detection device for detecting foreign objects in a monitoring region of a crop material flow, in the case of which, when a foreign object in the crop material flow is detected by the foreign-object detection device, the agricultural harvesting machine is braked automatically, and/or at least one energy storage medium is withdrawn in order to reduce the ground speed, it being possible to adjust the value for the braking effect and/or the withdrawal of the energy storage medium.
Claims16
An agricultural harvesting machine for one of harvesting and processing crop material, comprising a transfer device for transferring a crop material;
- an intake device including a foreign-object detection device for detecting foreign objects in a monitoring region of a crop material flow;
- means for braking the agricultural harvesting machine;
- means for withdrawing at least one energy storage medium in order to reduce the ground speed when a foreign object of the crop material flow is detected by said foreign-objection detection device;
- means for adjusting a value of a braking effect implemented by said means for braking;
- and means for adjusting a value of a braking effect implemented by said means for withdrawing said energy storage medium.
